Spores of Displacement: Legal Geographies of Mould, Evidence and Housing Precarity
Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 51, Issue 2, June 2026.Short Abstract This article develops a legal geography of mould by examining how damp and disrepair become legal, evidentiary and spatial objects within rental disputes and eviction proceedings in Germany. Drawing on ethnographic research across more than 200 district court hearings, it shows how mould enters the courtroom not primarily as a ...

Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle
Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.
